“Sean is a wonderful care provider for my dog. She stayed with him for about two weeks, and he was excellent about sending me updates and pictures. I was so happy and relieved that she was in such caring hands. I would recommend him to anyone needing pet care.”

“Deirdre was AMAZING with my puppy Sookie. She goes above and beyond with all her care and you can tell she really loves taking care of dogs and treats yours like her own. My dog Sookie had some stomach issues and Deirdre cooked her rice and other things that fixed it. When she noticed that Sookie was itching, she gave her anti-itching baths, Omega 3 oil and a spray that fixed that too! She sent so many videos and pics that showed how Sookie had the best time during her stay and I will totally have my dogs stay with Deirdre again!”

“Hope was great for our 5-month old Aussie puppy. She had a number of other dogs there to play and had a great time. She was very responsive during her stay and asked a lot of questions prior to agreeing to watch her. Hope has a lot of experience with dogs and loves dogs. Will definitely have our pup stay with her again if we are in the area.”

“Our Great Pyrénées had a great time at Sarah’s house. Her dog is the perfect playmate for Charlotte and the fenced in backyard gives her plenty of space to play freely and safely. Sarah was kind enough to send me pictures and give updates on how Charlotte was doing. Charlotte can be a picky and unpredictable eater so I really appreciated Sarah’s patience and perseverance during mealtimes. Charlotte and I look forward to her next overnight!”

About: Now offering adventure daycare (pick up and drop off service and hiking during the day) and boarding in my home which includes adventure daycare.... Over 16 years training, walking and exercising high energy dogs. I have extensive experience with working dogs, special needs dogs and have certifications in dog obedience and other disciplines. I am licensed as a public school teacher and fully background checked. Contact me for the best care. Boarding and adventure daycare is my speciality. I have limited drop in availability. Dog walking and exercising is my full-time job. I want to provide a concierge service that makes it easiest for you to take your time back and be well. Your wellness is key to your dog being well. My joy for this profession started when I couldn't find a trusted sitter and dog walker for my own animal. I decided to provide that service to others so they wouldn't have the same problem. I give love, attention and exercise to your family member as if they were my own. I am a licensed public school educator who is fully background checked with glowing references that can be provided.

About: I’ve helped care for my friends dogs for years, and I’ve been with my Australian shepherd for over a year now. He would love to play with your dog while you need the night off :) I currently work part time, but live with roommates, so there are other people around to make sure your fur buddy gets the walks and potty breaks that they need :) My yard isn’t fenced, but if your dog is comfortable on a lead, my dog will be happy to tucker them out with some frisbee or just frolicking around.

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and other animals throughout my whole life. I enjoy my time with the animals and they can definitely tell! I do work everyday during the week, but I am available after work which would be 5pm sometimes sooner and also anytime on the weekends! I will do whatever I can to make sure your dog feels comfortable while here, whether it’s playing with them, petting or taking them on a walk!

Sean, along with Lisa and CJ, give my Missy the very best care. I can’t say enough good things about this provider because he really does everything possible to make Missy’s stays more like vacation or spa days instead of time away from home and me. He provides daily updates and pictures. He gave great narratives of Missy’s interactions with the resident pack members, Pluto and Cosmo, as well as other visitors. I’m so thankful for the love and care the whole family gives Missy.

Cindy is such a nice person and an amazing pet sitter. I instantly felt comfortable with her watching my beloved Sadie. She sent photos and I could see from the pictures how content and happy Sadie was in her care. There was even a photo of them snuggling together in front of the tv! Cindy was flexible in my timing and patient with me returning late in an ice storm. I couldn't recommend Cindy highly enough!
